Good afternoon, Middle College at Austin Peay State University Community! This is Dr. Phyllis Casebolt, the principal of our school. On behalf of the Middle College faculty and staff, we are excited to welcome the new students as well as our returning students. We appreciate your support and trust in our school community.

Our first half-day for students will take place on August 7, 2024, at 9:00 AM in the APSU Clement building auditorium. (The following link is a map of the APSU campus https://www.apsu.edu/map/pdf/general-campus-map.pdf.) Students will receive an informational packet and communication about our plans and expectations for this year. Students new to campus will participate in a guided tour of APSU. Additionally, laptops will be issued. A message with the Student Laptop Form will be sent from CMCSS to each student’s primary point of contact in PowerSchool. All students need to complete the laptop confirmation form with a parent/guardian before they arrive on Wednesday. It would be ideal for students to bring a backpack or case to protect the laptop.

In regards to parking on campus, I recommend parking in the student lot in front of Burt. That section of the parking lot is beside the APSU Fortera Stadium.

The start of a new school year brings with it a sense of excitement and anticipation. Our mission is to support students in pursuing post-secondary goals through the immersive college environment. Our vision is for all students to graduate with an attainable, well-structured plan for their post-secondary goals. Together, let’s approach this new journey with a sense of hope, enthusiasm, and a growth mindset. We look forward to our students seeing our new location at Burt. It will be a blessing to engage with all of them on August 7th!
